&#8211;&gt; Number of wins are considered first to decide a Team’s position on the table in case of points been tied between two or more teams.

&#8211;&gt; Only if the number of wins and points are tied, NRR will be considered.

Given that there are many possible Scenarios for every team to make it to the playoffs, and their chances of ending in top 2 of the table, Crictracker brings to you all the possible Scenarios for each team.

Here are the possible Scenarios:

<a href="https://media.crictracker.com/media/attachments/2015/05/MS-Dhoni-Leading-CSK.jpg"><img loading="lazy" class="size-full wp-image-18306" src="https://media.crictracker.com/media/attachments/MS-Dhoni-Leading-CSK.jpg" alt="Chennai Super Kings 2015" width="733" height="560" sizes="(max-width: 733px) 100vw, 733px"></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-18306" class="wp-caption-text">Chennai Super Kings 2015.

&#8211;&gt; Chennai Super Kings were the first team to ensure their playoffs berth. After their win vs Kings XI Punjab on Saturday, they finished as topper of the table.

<a href="https://media.crictracker.com/media/attachments/2015/05/KKR-win-vs-kxip-kol.jpg"><img loading="lazy" class="size-full wp-image-18115" src="https://media.crictracker.com/media/attachments/KKR-win-vs-kxip-kol.jpg" alt="KKR 2015" width="640" height="469" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px"></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-18115" class="wp-caption-text">KKR 2015. (Photo Source: BCCI)</figcaption>

&#8211;&gt; Kolkata Knight Riders need to hope that the last league game between SRH and MI gets washed out.

&#8211;&gt; Or else, KKR have to hope that RCB loses by some 150 run margin or DD chases down a target around 100, set by RCB inside 6-7 overs.

&#8211;&gt; KKR cannot finish in top 2 anymore.

&#8211;&gt; If SRH-MI game doesn&#8217;t get washed out and RCB doesn&#8217;t lose by the huge margin as mentioned above,, they are out of IPL 2015.

&#8211;&gt; For making into playoffs, SRH need to win in their game vs MI.

&#8211;&gt; Or else, SRH have to hope that their game gets washed out and RCB loses by some 175-200 run margin vs DD.

&#8211;&gt; SRH needs to win in its game vs MI and hope RCB loses to DD or at least the RCB-DD match gets washed out.

&#8211;&gt; If SRH loses its match vs MI, they are out of IPL 2015.

Rajasthan Royals became the second team in this IPL season to make into playoffs after they defeated Kolkata Knight Riders.

&#8211;&gt; For ending in Top 2, RR should now hope that RCB loses in its game vs DD and SRH-MI game gets washed out.

Royal Challengers Bangalore:

&#8211;&gt; For making into play offs, RCB needs to win in its last league game vs DD.

&#8211;&gt; In case of they lose vs DD, they should make sure they don’t lose by a huge margin.

&#8211;&gt; Even if their game gets washed out, they are through to playoffs.

&#8211;&gt; For finishing in Top 2, RCB needs to win in its last game. Or else, they have to hope that both the League games on Sunday will be washed out.

&#8211;&gt; If RCB loses in their game vs DD by a huge margin and SRH vs MI match gets washed out, they are out of IPL 2015.

Note:
&#8211;&gt; Number of wins are considered first to decide a Team’s position on the table in case of points been tied between two or more teams.
&#8211;&gt; Only if the number of wins and points are tied, NRR will be considered.
Given that there are many possible Scenarios for every team to make it to the playoffs, and their chances of ending in top 2 of the table, Crictracker brings to you all the possible Scenarios for each team.
Here are the possible Scenarios:
Chennai Super Kings:
<figure id="attachment_18306" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-18306" style="width: 733px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://media.crictracker.com/media/attachments/2015/05/MS-Dhoni-Leading-CSK.jpg"><img loading="lazy" class="size-full wp-image-18306" src="https://media.crictracker.com/media/attachments/MS-Dhoni-Leading-CSK.jpg" alt="Chennai Super Kings 2015" width="733" height="560" sizes="(max-width: 733px) 100vw, 733px"></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-18306" class="wp-caption-text">Chennai Super Kings 2015. (Photo Source: BCCI)</figcaption></figure>
&#8211;&gt; Chennai Super Kings were the first team to ensure their playoffs berth. After their win vs Kings XI Punjab on Saturday, they finished as topper of the table. 

Kolkata Knight Riders:
<figure id="attachment_18115" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-18115" style="width: 640px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://media.crictracker.com/media/attachments/2015/05/KKR-win-vs-kxip-kol.jpg"><img loading="lazy" class="size-full wp-image-18115" src="https://media.crictracker.com/media/attachments/KKR-win-vs-kxip-kol.jpg" alt="KKR 2015" width="640" height="469" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px"></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-18115" class="wp-caption-text">KKR 2015. (Photo Source: BCCI)</figcaption></figure>
For qualifying:
&#8211;&gt; Kolkata Knight Riders need to hope that the last league game between SRH and MI gets washed out.
&#8211;&gt; Or else, KKR have to hope that RCB loses by some 150 run margin or DD chases down a target around 100, set by RCB inside 6-7 overs.
For ending in top 2:
&#8211;&gt; KKR cannot finish in top 2 anymore.
To get eliminated:
&#8211;&gt; If SRH-MI game doesn&#8217;t get washed out and RCB doesn&#8217;t lose by the huge margin as mentioned above,, they are out of IPL 2015.

Sunrisers Hyderabad:
<figure id="attachment_18288" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-18288" style="width: 628px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://media.crictracker.com/media/attachments/2015/05/SRHvKXIP-in-IPL8.jpg"><img loading="lazy" class="size-full wp-image-18288" src="https://media.crictracker.com/media/attachments/SRHvKXIP-in-IPL8.jpg" alt="SRH 2015" width="628" height="447" sizes="(max-width: 628px) 100vw, 628px"></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-18288" class="wp-caption-text">SRH 2015.

For qualifying:
